Patent EP-0244886-A3 (EP)
IPC: G01B3/00
Filed: 1987-03-08
Abstract: Bei einem Verfahren zur Überprüfung und/oder Erfas­
sung der Masse, Massänderungen, Positionen oder Posi­
tionsänderungen von Werkstücken, Stellgliedern oder dgl., 
wird eine Mess- oder Stellgrösse von einem Taster abge­
griffen und auf ein elastisch verformbares Messglied über­
tragen.  
     Um die Nachteile einer Biegefeder als Messwertwan­
dler zu vermeiden und die Möglichkeit zu schaffen, dass 
Messgeräte nach gleichem System unter Verwendung mög­
lichst vieler gleicher Bauteile einen grossen Messbereich 
abdecken, wird der Weg des Tasters über eine besondere, 
verhältnismässig weiche Feder in eine der Mess- oder 
Stellgrösse entsprechende Kraft umgewandelt und auf 
einen Sensor übertragen.
Patent EP-0232960-A3 (EP)
IPC: G06F12/08
Filed: 1987-01-08
Abstract: A method for automatically extending the size of a segment in a 
page segmented virtual memory data processing system which increases 
the size of a segment in blocks of 64K virtual pages in response to the 
system detecting that the requested page has been protected. The 
conventional UNIX type System Calls create and open files in virtual 
memory. All pages are protected "read only" until a SHMAT type System 
Call is made to operate on a page at a specific address. At that point 
in the process, a protection exception is recognised by the system and 
the UNIX kernel takes control to remove the protection and update the 
appropriate data structures to reflect the new status of the page and 
the addresses in real memory where the page may be found. Segments 
containing mapped files are also extended by the method.

IPC: H01H13/702
Filed: 1987-03-12
Abstract: A membrane switch is provided which comprises a 
base layer (10) of non-conductive material, a static 
circuit in the form of a first electrical conductor or 
conductors (11) mounted on said base layer, a spacer 
layer (14) having at least one aperture (15) therein 
which is coincident with said first conductor or 
conductors (11), a dynamic circuit in the form of a 
second electrical conductor or conductors (13) 
coincident with said aperture facing said first 
electrical conductor or conductors (11), and a 
resilient membrane (12) covering said second conductor 
or conductors (13).  
     Within the area bounded by the aperture a 
discontinuous layer of non-conductive material (16) is 
provided between said first conductor or conductors 
and said second conductor or conductors, whereby the 
first conductor or conductors is/are spaced from the 
second conductor or conductors until the resilient 
membrane is depressed by the user's finger and 
contact is made between the opposed first and second 
conductors in zones free of the non-conductive 
material.  
     In this manner advantage can be made of the 
deformable texture of the fleshy pad of the finger in 
that the latter will press one conductor (13) on both 
 
 
sides of a line of non-conductive material (16) into 
contact with its opposite conductor the pad 
temporarily deforming to accommodate the non-conductive 
line.

Abstract: A coaxial cable coupler includes a first section (12) for 
coupling to the coaxial cable (50) of a utilisation device and a 
second section (14) for coupling to the coaxial cable (44) of a 
communications system. Both the first and second sections 
(12, 14) are provided with cavities (18, 20) therein. The cavity 
(20) in the second section (14) houses an insulating sleeve 
(22, 24, 26) which in turn encloses a contact assembly (36, 38) 
for making contact to and electrically connecting the inner 
conductors (48, 54) of the coaxial cables of the com­
munications system and utilisation device. The first cavity 
(18) is dimensioned and configured to function as a wave­
guide having a cutoff wavelength which is substantially 
below the operating wavelength spectrum of the system, es­
tablishing a very deep bidirectional high pass filter at the 
open coupler. Thus, when the utilisation device is disconnec­
ted, radiation from or to the coupler is prevented thus pre­
venting environmental electromagnetic pollution and un­
authorised wirelsss access from and to the system.

Title: Mobility separator with automatic shut-off mobility separator with automatic shut-off
IPC: E03F5/16
Filed: 1988-01-28
Abstract: A light-liquid separator has an inlet for a light liquid/heavy liquid mixture, a separator chamber for separating the mixture, a heavy-liquid discharge leading into an outflow and an automatic closure for the heavy-liquid outflow, which closes when the heavy-liquid level in the separator chamber falls below a predetermined level. The separator chamber has, in its lower region, an additional heavy-liquid outflow which is always open and which leads into a heavy-liquid chamber which is separate from the separator chamber and is provided with an overflow leading to the outflow. This prevents light liquid from being forced out of the separator chamber into the soil surrounding the separator in the event of large inflows and a closed automatic closure. <IMAGE>

Patent EP-0306712-A3 (EP)
Title: Sense amplifier with improved bitline precharging for dynamic random access memory
IPC: G11C7/06
Filed: 1988-08-05
Abstract: A novel sense amplifier and decoupling device structure for 
integrated circuit memories wherein an embodiment of a cross-­
coupled sense amplifier includes two PMOS devices (10, 12), 
the gates of which devices are grounded and clamp the downward 
voltage swing of the memory bitlines (26, 28) to the absolute 
value of the threshold voltage (VTP) of the grounded-gate PMOS 
devices in the sense amplifier. This limited voltage swing 
does not affect charge storage of storage capacitors because 
the absolute value of the threshold voltage (VT) of the cell 
transfer gate device is larger. Precharging the bitlines is 
achieved by equalizing the two bitlines, each charged to VDD 
and | VTP |, respectively. One node of the sense amplifier 
retains a full VDD swing and is conveniently connected to the 
DATA bus. The sense amplifier bitline swing is limited to a 
swing of  VDD - | VTP | and saves power without adversely 
affecting charge storage and the precharging level 
  
and improves the signal development time during 
sensing.

Title: Pulling force measuring device for tool-clamping devices
IPC: B23Q3/16
Filed: 1989-06-13
Abstract: In a measuring device for the accurate measurement of the spindle pulling forces of machine tools, a test shaft (2a) having a shaft section lying behind a steep-angle taper (9a) forms a tubular measuring body (10a) which, like an elastic expanded bar, experiences under the pulling forces occurring only an exceptionally slight longitudinal strain which, however, can be readily represented on a measuring device via resistance strain gauges (27 to 30) of a measurement transducer (26). The test shaft (2a) is essentially formed by a one-piece rotary body which needs only to be provided with the measurement transducer (26), covered by a protective casing (33) and lying insulated in embedding (32), connecting leads (34), a front connector part (47) and the protective casing (33). This results in a very simple, easy-to-manipulate means of testing the said pulling forces, which means is in addition essentially unrestricted by displacement and is therefore very accurate. <IMAGE>
